Today's theme in the house has revolved around recognizing, receiving and appreciating the many blessings we have experienced as a family this past week and a half. I have had a few of my own - coincidences and conversations that give me goosebumps because they provided an unexpected support, timely answer to a struggle or just the right words at just the right time.
Mom shared an experience she had today as she called in to book a flight for my aunt Lisa. She knew the flight was last-minute and that it wouldn't come cheap. But instead of just doing it online, she called in and got a person on the other end of the phone. After giving the woman her information, the rep asked if she was Tammy Call from Las Vegas, NV. Surprised, mom replied that yes she is and discovered that the customer service rep was a long-time friend from Las Vegas who has been following mom's progress form the very beginning. She wasn't sure what she would be able to do so last minute, but somehow found a fare at the lowest price possible. Unbelievable! Such coincidences keep cropping up for us - it's crazy.
And then, my sister Kristen was called in and presented with a card from her boss and inside it included several hundred dollars worth of travel vouchers for her to be able to fly out to Phoenix and be with her family when she needs it. All of her team of 9 contributed and the gesture was above and beyond what she expected.
We are truly being looked after and cared for in our time of need, Thank you to everyone for your love and support :)
